66. Home-Grown Food Is Medicine, the Importance of Fiber Diversity for Gut Health, and Profitable Passion Projects— Ross Raddi

"It just makes common sense at least in terms of the health aspect. And it really only clicked for me 5 months ago, because like I said, I stopped eating dairy and  gluten. The brain fog cleared up immediately. Within 12 days, all the lingering depression I had was gone. I was like a whole new person again. Within 30 days, I felt happy and I could have listed at least 10 differences in my life that were significantly better in terms of my health. Some people are going to react differently than other people, but food is medicine." - Ross Raddi 

Welcome back to another episode of Discover More.

This week, we continue our conversation with Ross Raddi.

Ross (@rossraddi)is a talented arborist, podcast host, accountant, and YouTuber.

In last week’s conversation, we discussed the power of gardening and home-grown food, while this week, we dive into all things health and functional medicine.

Functional medicine is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on solving the root problem rather than fixing symptoms, and Ross learned a lot about it through studying the work of Dr. Mark Hyman.

By applying functional medicine principles and eliminating gluten and dairy from his diet, Ross shares that he was able to move past the depression that plagued him for years growing up.

He also shares his most powerful tips for building a successful side business.

This occurs at the end of the episode, so be sure to stick around for these insights.

We hope you enjoy this week’s episode of Discover More, with us and Ross Raddi.
